About this Coin:

The 2012 Wheat Sheaf dollar is part of a popular "homage" series that celebrates the agriculture and primary industries that built modern Australia. By bringing a pre-decimal silver design onto a modern dollar, the Mint created a bridge between old and new Australian currency history. With a mintage significantly lower than standard circulating commemoratives, the 'C' Mintmark Wheat Sheaf is a vital addition for any collector aiming to complete a chronological $1 date run.
